Anti-Gay Marriage gays

Gay activists also feed negative stereotypes when they demand heterosexuals and homosexuals back their twisted version of marriage. But the characteristics of the persecutor are rarely challenged. The activist claims that she sees things in shades of grey (even when taking black and white positions), speaks boldly about intolerant behavior (even when involved in intolerant behavior) and deeply resents having people question her unquestionable opinions (hence the stacking of television shows or censorship demands).

The media for its part takes the role of the co-conspirator and/or enabler. Some campaigning journalists stack their papers with groupthink points, and probably enjoy being rewarded for parroting rainbow family slogans. After all, how can gays oppose "gay marriage"?

Who is playing politics?

"Same sex-attracted Australians are too easily co-opted as pro-gay marriage and therefore one-issue voters, easily snared by any Left-leaning, liberal candidate who puts in a word for gay marriage," wrote James Heard in the Herald Sun (05/13/2008), Melbourne. "On the other hand, conservative politicians have too often taken the activists at face value, and assumed all gay and lesbian Australians adhere to the same system of beliefs, and want the same political outcomes."

Heard, who identifies as a same-sex attracted man, has every right to be annoyed. The Melbourne-based writer reminds us that Professor Dennis Altman - a gay rights pioneer - has likened the activists' obsession with the marriage issue, as "self-indulgent crap." And in a "Gay Man's Case Against Gay Marriage," Michael Bronski stresses that, "It is about sentiment and the power of advertising" and that homosexuals "also live in a culture that has a multibillion-dollar wedding industry, which inundates us everyday with the message that we will only be happy when we are married."

And is the "gay marriage" movement another activist distraction? Not long ago, a homosexual man shared with me his history of sex and drug abuse at the hands of influential gay men, a taboo topic, to be sure. Yet, pretend peacemakers, feel that talking about weddings and the like is more politically palatable, than discussing the many ways in which gay-on-gay bullying damages all Australians.  

Meanwhile in England, so-called "gay divorces" are booming within only a short period of time, from an historical perspective. Notes Rex Wockner: "Dissolution of [marriage-like] civil partnerships in England, Scotland, and Wales almost doubled in 2009 compared with 2008, The Independent reported Aug. 20. The figure jumped from 180 to 351."

As Monique found, homosexuals aren't always on Bob Brown's page, but reporters don't always report.
